Today I noticed a very weird interaction: if I rename an instrument with Cmd-R, and then I hold down Ctrl, Renoise invokes my Ctrl-R keybinding constantly until I let go of Ctrl.
I’m on macOS 15.5 and Renoise 3.5.1. No special input methods, just plain US English. And there doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with my keyboard.
I couldn’t find a built-in command that easily demonstrates the issue, so I’ve included a tool, if any Mac users would humor me to try it. (Other OSes may have a similar bug, but the method I described at the start would only work with macOS bindings.)
This tool adds a command called “Test” that prints a random number into Renoise’s status area. If you bind it to Ctrl-R and do as I said above, you should see an endless stream of random numbers at the bottom of Renoise.

Edit: Weirdly, while working on a track I just had Renoise continually spamming F-4 notes (that is, the R key when Oct=3). Made me think my keyboard was busted after all, but still nothing in other apps. That big R logo is starting to look like a threat. ![]()
